SSVF provides comprehensive Supportive Services to very low income Veterans and their families who are currently experiencing homelessness or are at risk of losing their homes. With the SSVF program, Veterans who have a discharge that is other than dishonorable, and have at least one day of active duty service time, are able to access a seamless, integrated and sustainable network of resources to include case management, housing counseling, legal support, credit repair and financial planning services, and time-limited, temporary financial assistance.

Eligible Veterans may receive time-limited financial assistance for rent, utilities, and security deposits. SSVF offers short-term case management that links Veterans with resources within the Veterans Administration and the community with the ultimate goal of stabilizing Veterans in housing using the Housing First Model.

"I am the wife of a Viet Nam Veteran. My husband started going to PVMSEC 10 years ago for help. No mere words could ever express how much his life and in turn our family life has changed for the better in those years. I am and always will be grateful for the wonderful care he has received at the Philadelphia Veterans Multi-Service Center & Education Center."
